Chapter 877: Ghost that Eats Time

The four Pure Hatreds were related to time. One even had a name similar to Immortal Pharma. Fu Sheng started Immortal Pharma after he got the black box. The secret to immortality appeared to be hidden in the black box.

“Immortality is a good bait to get investment. Fu Sheng would have gained many things from the black box. Immortality is just one of them.” Han Fei opened a few layers of the box, but he didn’t gain anything. Perhaps that was because the items in the outer layer had been taken by others already.

“I wonder if the four Pure Hatreds would combine to become a new ghost inside the abyss.”

The heart known as Longevity fell into the black river. It absorbed despair, and new vessels grew out of its wounds. The flower of resentment appeared to have found something interesting. The roots bound with the vessels, and they grew rapidly. The petals fell, and new flowers bloomed. After gaining the blood from Longevity, the flower glowed like never before.

“How can such a beautiful flower exist in a land of despair?”

Gao Cheng’s greed persona was birthed from endless torture. However, this highly psychopathic persona became Gao Cheng’s only tool to resist Gao Xing. Unexpected things often came from the most tragic places.

“My brain is different from normal. As the persona awakens, the brain realm will get bigger.”

Before trapping Longevity, Han Fei didn’t realize that his mental world was slowly becoming an altar world. Using persona as a base and past memories as content, he was forming a world that belonged to him.

“When a living human’s brain and a Pure Hatred’s ghost territory becomes big enough, would they become an Unmentionable?”

Han Fei had entered many altar worlds. From his perspective, every altar world was like a super large ghost territory. It represented the Unmentionable’s past and obsession. “If I continue to perfect myself, is it possible for me to become an Unmentionable?” Then a thought flashed in his mind. “When I become an Unmentionable, the Usurpation is considered successful, right?”

The cracked ground recovered. The twisting underground river disappeared. The water retreated to Gu Yang Tian Nian Old Folk’s Home. This village had no survivors left. Longevity’s ghost territory had been vanquished. The starlight shone on the path of Han Fei. After he drank two bottles of ghost blood. He entered the forest and slowly approached the Old Folk’s Home. Han Fei didn’t forget his mission. The deceptively simple altar mission was very hard.

The Old Folk’s Home was well within a ghost territory. The time flow there was different from the outside. There were all kinds of building around the home, but no matter how long Han Fei traveled, he couldn’t get closer to the home.

Many rooms echoed the cries of elders. However, it had been swallowed up by time. With Longevity’s help, Han Fei avoided all the dangers. He saw a map in the corridor. “Picture room, music room, praying room, chess room, caretaker’s room...” Han Fei studied for a long time before he found the security room in a secluded corner.

The security here had already undergone professional training. They also knew basic first aid so they could help when there was a need for medical attention.

Han Fei confirmed his destination, but the unease did not lessen. There were dangers everywhere at a Strange Building. He could die at any time. “The clock on the wall has stopped moving, but I feel like my body is rapidly aging. It’s pointless even hiding in the mist. The ghost territory is consuming my life.” Han Fei walked further, and the screaming suddenly heightened. Tragedies were happening somewhere in the home. Han Fei leaned on the door and looked through the peephole. The massacre was already over. The whole ward was covered in blood. To his shock, the blood dried and fell rapidly. In just a few minutes, the walls had returned to normal. Han Fei tried to push open the door. There were signs of killing in the room, but the bodies and killers had all disappeared.

A blow hit Han Fei from behind. His left shoulder bent, and his body tripped forward. “What attacked me?” Han Fei didn’t find anything out of place. When he looked around, he felt a chill in his stomach. A wound appeared on his stomach for no reason. Blood leaked out to soak his clothes. “Who is attacking me?”

Han Fei didn’t dare to stay for too long. He used his fastest speed to rush to the other side of the corridor. Han Fei ran for a few meters before he turned around. He saw a caretaker holding a sharp knife. His head was covered with black cloth. The caretaker’s action was strange too. He stabbed the air.

Han Fei’s pupils trembled. The caretaker was stabbing at the place where he was standing. He stabbed at the place where Han Fei’s stomach would have been earlier!

“Can he attack me from the future?” Han Fei had never encountered such a strange power before. It was hard to defend.

The caretaker slowly turned around. He stood far from Han Fei and raised his knife. Han Fei sensed danger and immediately evaded. The next second, the blood mist was cut through, and a wound appeared on Han Fei’s face.

“When the Pure Hatred here activates its power, I’ll be even more passive.” Han Fei turned to leave. He didn’t want a battle yet. The power difference was too huge. “This caretaker can cut through the mist. He’s not a simple ghost either. I should run for now.”

There was a time difference between Han Fei and the caretaker. They seemed to exist in different timelines. This meant that Han Fei couldn’t counter the attacks.

“There has to be a limitation to his power. Perhaps he needs to see his target or be within range of the target.”

Han Fei moved into different rooms to confuse the caretaker. After confirming he had lost the caretaker, Han Fei rushed to the security room.
